  1. Well my audience is my professor but luckily she plays video games on PC so I should be all good.
  2. Microcenter for physical store and newegg for online
  3. I go to a university that is very accepting of the LGBTQ community and get certified every year in the SafeZone (LGBTQ) course haha. We were told by our professor that if we were to do a gender question to use gender queer with female and male to be inclusive
  4. I know what you mean haha. Some love it, some hate it.
  5. Kherm thanks for the response. I'm face palming right now lol. Didn't even think of the fact that we game on PC because of all the benefits, not just one. My apologies.
  6. Hey everyone!! I'm a sophomore in college in Intermediate Comp. For my final paper I"m analyzing the discourse community of PC Master Race. I would greatly appreciate it if you could take this quick survey for me. Thank you for your time. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/3PGMPPY
  7. My friend probably put about 1000 into the all the parts except the graphics cards. He just bought 2 Titan X cards. He's crazy
  8. Hey everyone. Got an email today that Rainbow Six: Siege closed Alpha sign-up is now open. Simply log in and answer a quick survey. I think it's only North America and Europe and only on PC. link: http://rainbow6.ubi.com/siege/en-GB/news/detail.aspx?c=tcm:154-195796-16&ct=tcm:148-76770-32
  9. Turns out I also already have tomb raider and the guardian of light. So another game to give away
  10. Hey everyone I just bought the humble Square Enix Bundle 2. I already own hitman and deus ex so I'm going to give them away. Just post a random number from 1-100 and I'll pick a random winner for each game.
  11. I put my friends 670 in my 1st pci-e slot and then after using it for like 5 minutes put my 570 back into the slot. The pc would not recognize my 570 at all in the slot no matter what we did. We put the 670 back into the slot and it recognizes it write away. We then put the 570 in the second pci-e slot (the 8x one) and then it recognized it. Was the weirdest thing ever. I put my new 970 in the first pci-e slot and it works flawlessly.
  12. A couple of my good friends from high school are pc gamers. Also met some guys at basic/AIT that were really into pc gaming. One of the guys in the fraternity is also really big into pc's (he's also a computer engineer major haha)
  13. OOOH haha. If you would have said straighttalk or Boost I would have known haha. Didn't know they had their own little title. Thanks for the info! You learn something everyday on these forums. I'm gonna see what T-mobile has to offer when I get back down to Cincy. I will consider them though.
  14. As of right now I'm leaning T-mobile. I would have went there right after I left AT&T but the one that used to be in town closed down. One of the brothers also works at T-mobile and hooked up one of the other guys so he might be able to do the same for me.
  15. So I go in to AT&T today to renew/ get a new contract because today is the end of my 2 years with them. So I go in and my account info settled out and then they go and tell me that my contract doesn't expire till March 18th of 2015. I tell them no that isn't correct because 2 years ago today I received this phone and phone number. They just say well your contract isn't up till March 18th 2015. They don't even try to troubleshoot or help out in any way, they just repeat that same line. So I just "Well that's wrong sir and there is nothing I can do about it" and leave. Now once I got home I called up AT&T to see if I could sort this out. I call and tell them what is going on with the contract and how everything is wrong. So they transfer me from a representative to a support person. I tell them what's going on and how the info is all wrong. My contract was signed 2 years ago and should end today and that the for March is for the other phone in the plan. The lady the proceeds to say well the contract for the other line is up and has been (which I already knew, it had been up for a long time obviously) and then proceeds to tell me that the contract for my line doesn't end till March. I told her that was wrong and all she could do was repeatedly say "well in the terms & services that you signed it was for March 18th." She probably said that line 10 times. So I just said "Whatever, you're obviously no help and I'm going to get no help. I'll just ride this contract out then I'm done with AT&T. DONE." She was stumbling over her worlds as she tried to say goodbye. Can any of you suggest a good carrier other than AT&T for a single line service?
  16. My Asus 970 Strix is dead silent at idle and barely audible when under load. The only time I get coil whine with the card is when I'm on splash screens and what not getting like 1000+ fps. Heck I can get 200+ fps and I still don't get coil whine. It's only when I get to the 1000 fps range that I get it
  17. Put on my cpu cooler and not noticing that one side of the nuts had rubber pads to shield them from the board. Shorted that board real quick.
  18. Thanks for the suggestions everyone!
  19. Hey everyone! So my CM Storm Recon mouse is starting to show its age (scroll wheel squeaks like a mofo now). I was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas of good gaming mice. I've been out of the tech scene for a good five months so I'm fully up to date on what mice have released and are good. Any help would be appreciated!
  20. Mario on the Super Nintendo haha. I may only be 20 but I was gaming at a really young age
  21. In person would have to be my friends rig. Two GTX780ti and a 4770k and an asus sabertooth motherboard if I remember right. A corsair 700D case, a corsair H100i cooler, some dominator ram, like 3 or 4 ssd's. Pretty sweet rig. He has an ACER 4K and an ASUS 4K monitor and the ASUS Swift too haha. He's trying to find the best monitor for himself.
  22. I just got my ASUS gtx970 strix today. Awesome card to say the least. Mine boost clocks to about 1324mhz instead of the normal "1253" that its supposed to and I haven't even touched it yet haha. While boosted to that it only hits roughly 50c and around the 40-50% fan usage. Far Cry 4 maxed out at 1080p is giving around 60fps. Battlefield 4 maxed out gets me around 120+fps. Great card for sure. I did find the single 8pin to be really odd but it's whatever.
  23. So this came in the newegg shipping box with my new GTX970. I just found it a little ironic to have AMD advertising with my nvidia card haha
  24. I have malware bytes. I'll run it real quick. You bring up a good point. I wasn't getting the issue till I updated Afterburner today. If malware bytes doesn't do it then I'll delete Afterburner and see if that fixes the problem.
